Get Ready for A to Z Reflection and Hats Off Corner with Chrys Fey

Good News Returns To The Write Game

Did you hear about Marcus MCoy who kept his cool, called 911, and directed them where he and his family were trapped by fire in the second story of their home? For 11 minutes he stayed calm and kept his sister, who was in the room with him, calm. Now that's something. And he's just 13 years old. Very good news.

Something In the Middle

Now's your chance to rehash, rethink and share your April experience. I'll post mine on Wed. 4/6.Sign Up Now

I've been reading the opening lines of several of the short stories and posting them on my fb page. If you'd like to catch a preview of what's inside the anthology, here's one example. They Call Me Alice.

Hats Off Corner Welcomes Chrys Fey

Chris says: When I write supernatural-themed stories, such as my newest short stories Ghost of Death and Witch of Death, there are certain songs and singers/bands that I gravitate to for inspiration. And yes, every time I write, I am wearing my headphones. :) I have always said that music is my muse.

Jolie Montgomery, a twenty-one-year-old woman, wakes up in an alley next to her corpse. She has no memories of her murder or the night she died. She didn’t even see the killer’s face before he or she took her life. Wanting justice, Jolie seeks answers in the only way a ghost can...by stalking the lead detective on the case.

Avrianna Heavenborn is determined to find the person responsible for a young woman’s death. She gets closer to the killer’s identity with every clue she uncovers, and Jolie is with her every step of the way.

But if they don’t solve her murder soon, Jolie will be an earth-bound spirit forever.

Detective Reid Sanders doesn’t believe in the supernatural, but when he’s faced with a crime scene that defies the laws of nature, he has no other choice but to start believing. And solving a magical murder involves working with a witch.

Liberty Sawyer embodies the look of your classic evil witch, so, it’s no surprise when she uncovers the murderer is a witch that she becomes Reid’s number one suspect. If she can’t convince him otherwise, more people could lose their lives to dark magic, including her.

Chrys Fey is the author of Hurricane Crimes and 30 Seconds. She is currently working on the sequel to Hurricane Crimes that’ll serve as book two in the Disaster Crimes series.

When Fey was six years old, she realized her dream of being a writer by watching her mother pursue publication. At the age of twelve, she started writing her first novel, which flourished into a series she later rewrote at seventeen. Fey lives in Florida where she is waiting for the next hurricane to come her way.

You can connect with her on Facebook and her blog, Write with Fey. She loves to get to know her readers!

Congrats to Chrys, I have recently been a follower of her, I have signed up for Reflections but of course I have made a hash of it, It shows my whole blog instead of the one post.Great start to May Lee.Yvonne.

I like the first item on your music list. I'm mostly listening to black metal, but sometimes goth metal too. BTW, do you know the band Theatre of Tragedy? If not, check out the song A Rose for the Dead https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dfJ0UFuYTBw

I could see how Evanescence could set the tone for a book! What a great story about that 13-year-old boy, too. I wonder if it's easier for a younger person to be calmer than adults like us, who are more likely to freak out?
